Here is a build thread for a new setup i am working on. I decided to down size from a 250 gallon tenecor teneview as we are going to rip up the hardwood floors and stain the concrete slab.

tank - 36"x24"x18" ... starphire on 3 front panes, rimless, black silicone center overflow on back. Custom built tank from a David Varela dvups1 .

flow - (2) tunze 6055, (2) tunze 6025 and one mp40w with bb but dialed all the way down.

lighting - ati powermodule 8 x 39

bulb combination - 3 x ati blue +, aquascience duo, uvl actinic white, uvl super actinic, Sfiligoi super actinic, fiji purple

circulation - tunze 1073.040 for returns, tunze 1073.020 to feed chiller, uv and media reactors.

controller - apex for main controller.

dosing - profilux 2 with profilux 3 channel doser. (Ca, Alk, Mg)

Zeovit - TLF 550 phosban reactor - Brightwells zeovite, Brightwells MB7, VSV (Vodka, Sugar, Vinegar), Brightwells Koral Color and Brightwells Amino Acid

skimmer - i-tech 100


60% sps and 40% lps and zoas.
 
i have had the tank setup for almost 3 month now.



I want to thank Gary with Reefpets for holding my corals while my new tank cycled.
